Jared Ebanks New Balance’s return of the 550 for the first time since 1989 posed a high risk yet yielded an insurmountable reward, proffering a slew of inline releases and collaborative high points with Jack Harlow and Joe Freshgoods under the tutelage of Teddy Santis and crew. For the Boston-based brand’s final slate of propositions of the year, the silhouette’s “Team Royal” effort is returning to close out the 550’s two-year run.
As one of the pair’s first five colorways to release in conjunction with its 2020 return, the “Home” aesthetic is employed in similar fashion via crisp white leather base panels and perforated overlays coupled with seldom jet-black accents surrounding the ankle and sectioned tread. It’s time in the archives hasn’t fallen victim to yellowing or aged disparities either, color-matching the upper with a clad white midsole resting above its two-toned outsole. Explored expeditiously, the silhouette’s mainstay shade of a vibrant blue engulfs the midfoot “N” logo, tongue trim, sock liner and mesh collar in conclusion.
Releasing on December 21st for a retail price of $110, in the meantime enjoy an official look at the New Balance 550 “Team Royal”.
In other news, the Air Jordan 13 “Playoffs” is set to return in 2023.
